Lancome Tresor Elixir Limited Edition Fragrance Spray

Lancome Tresor Elixir Limited Edition Fragrance Spray
1.7 fl. oz. $67
A new intensity ¨C Tresor Elixir captures the finest attributes of the original, amplifying its roundness and richness in a fragrant new interpretation. Tresor Elixir is a woody fruity floriental, created for a woman who is lively and romantic, modern and contemporary ¨C a woman who wants to capture treasured moments with intensity.
I don’t know whatever took me so long to try this! I must have pre-judged it at some point and wrote it off as a chypre. God knows why–when I finally sniffed it I discovered it couldn’t be further off. Very sweet, yet subdued, I actually find this a soft yet sexy fragrance. Something in it reminds me of sweet cherry vanilla tobacco. I now realize that I knew a woman who always wore the most intoxicating fragrance and I never knew what it was. As soon as I sampled Tresor the light-bulb went off–it was this! I enjoy this on myself, but on her it was magical. The only con for me is that I’m not always in the mood for something this sweet, but when I am, this is just beautiful. Feminine, and just a touch mysterious.

CLINIQUE Pore Minimizer Instant Perfector from Macys.com


Thursday, December 20th, 2007

CLINIQUE Pore Minimizer Instant Perfector
Price $16.50
Instantly refines the look of pores with a natural-looking, long-lasting matte finish. De-shines. Resists sweat, humidity too. Using fingertips, smooth a small amount over areas with visible pores - nose, forehead, chin. Wear alone, under or over makeup for a flawless look. Invisible coverage.
I hope Clinique never quits making this product. Without it, the pores on my nose and across my cheeks would be accented by any makeup that I wear. Every time I run out of this product and have to go buy more, I am afraid that the SA will tell me that it has been discontinued. It seems like this happens to me with all my other favorite skin care and makeup products. A little goes a long way. If you find that you have applied too much and makeup is rolling up on top of it, just use a tissure and lightly wipe excess pore minimizer off or either blend it in with your fingers to surrounding areas.

Somehow you've ended up here. It's the end of December and you haven't bought one thing; not a bar of soap for your mother-in-law or a bottle of aftershave for your beau.

If your makeup shines, so will you

Sugar Face Polish from Sephora.com


Saturday, December 15th, 2007

Sugar Face Polish 4.2 oz
Price $55
Pure brown sugar, Fresh’s signature ingredient, teams up with skin-soothing wild strawberries in this luscious deep-cleansing mask that leaves your complexion radiant.
It’s been a long time since I’ve exfoliated, simply because I haven’t found any product I could use without disastrous results–inflaming my rosacea, making my skin peel more, causing breakouts, and so on. I bought this stupid-expensive scrub/mask based on multiple reviews that portrayed this product as moisturizing and gentle. I find it is both and I love it. Goodbye flakes, hello Gorgeous! I would go without ice cream to buy this stuff again.
